WHAT DALLAS HAS TO SAY NOW OF THE
COTTON BELT ROAD.
Texarkana, too, wants the st. Louis,
Arkansas and Texas road. Texarkana is
on the line between the two states and
from that line west to FL Paso, south to
Sabine Pass and thence westward to the
mouth of the Brazos there is cry goes
up for this road, and the most remarkable
part about this cry is that 1t has been
produced by the directors and officers of
the road, if the local papers are to be
believed. The Times man reads the pa
pers of the state. 1t is part of his bust
ness to do so, and, with but few eXcep-
lions, he can truly say all these papers
declare that they have every reason to be-
Iieve that their towns can get the road by
the proper subsidy. Fordyce and his men
seem to be on grand fish for subsidies.
Right of way and depot grounds
certain, with here and there
bonus OF cash is asked everywhere,
the road generously proposing TO buy
their own ties and iron. The road,
though, started in life on this plan. The
eminent and practical minister to Japan
shook his sides all over the state in the
delineat1on of the perfect character of the
narrow gauge system, to which this road
then belonged, making his peroration out
of a magnificent prayer for aid. Time
has demonstrated the impracticability of
the narrow gauge. At least it has been
abandoned on this line, but there has been
no change in it's demands for more. 1t
asks it of all. If a town be large or
small, in thickly settled country, or on
frontier, in the garden spots or the
desert, the cry is the same unchanging
whine for more. 1t came into the world
with it's hands clssped in supplication.
1t has never unclasped them. Under
barrymore, under receivers, as a mar
row gauge or standard gauge it, with
eyes shut to business and population,
it begs, begs, begs till it actually
sickens, like q doWn-st-the-heel theatre
Cal company, it arrives at town, and if
it realizes anything it will go to the next.
Such system can make no impress upon
the people. After a time those who do
nate will lose respect, and then among
the powerful systems of Gould, Hunting
ton and the Atchison, Topeka, and Santa
Fe it will command less influence than
ala beggar, as it has always BEEN

The Final Consummation.

Philosophy and Philosophy are cousins ger
man, and often quite undistinguishable from
each other. For instance, Sir VIM. Thomp-
son, in his scientific vaccinations, thinks we
cannot reckon on more than five or six mil
lions more of sunlight on this mundane
not very close calculation, but it may be
close enough for modern scientists, SO called,
who are much more speculative than exact.
The subject of Sir Williams calculations ex-
cites the visibility of the Baltimore daily Ne,cs,
who thinks that if the sun fails at that rate,
the time allowed US may be shortened so that
we may be reduced to the startling prospect
of only 100000 more years, hardly time
enough to realize the blessings of ''reform
within the party If the civil service re-
formers, however, do not die out, or grow
weary in well doing, we need not despair,
The Neics says:
Really there ought to be something done
with these scientific men. If there is anything
they delight in it is in destroying the comfort
of their neighbors. You never hear of any
thing being made to appear more beautiful,
healthful or pleasing by them. 1t is always
something revolving. They rub their hands
with suppressed glee when telling you that
each drop of water is filled with loathsome
reptiles and hideous wriggling things; that
drop of vinegar is a whole menagerie con
densed; that the food we eat is alive with
minute vermin, and the very air we breathe
of death dealing germs And now one of
them has struck upon the inspiring idea that
the world will come to an end after the lapse
of about 5000, 900 years

The First Public Road West of the
Susquehanna.

From the Hdnorer Herald, March 20.
In l766, two years after Hanover was found
ed, number of citizens of the town and vi
cinity presented a petition to the Court al
York setting forth that ''the road from Con-
ewago Settlement (Hanover) to Baltimore
Town was laid out thirty years before (1736)
by order of Baltimore County Court, before
the temporary line between the two provinces
was run, and this was then thought to belong
to Maryland, since the running of which line
there is about seven miles on north OF said
line of as useful road as perhaps any in the
Province of Pennsylvania and not on record
in this province"
During the year above given Henry Slagle,
Michael Banner, Richard McAllister, Cooper
Reineka, Christian Milhenner and Marks
Forney were appointed to view this road
that it might be recorded"
The original road being opened in 1876 was
the first public highway laid out west of the
Susquehanna river within the limits of Penn
sylvania. It was three years later that the
tiGreat Monocacy Road" from the site of
Wrightsville through York and Hanover to
Maryland was laid out by the authority of the
Lancaster County Court, to which county the
territory west of the Susquehanna belonged
until li49, when York County was formed.
Under an act of the Legislature, passed in
1908, Conrad Sherman, Henry Welsh, Peter
Storm, Frederick Wentz, Francis Lamotte,
Jacob Metzger and Peter Eckert were empow-
cred to make an 'arti6cial turnpike road from
Hanover to Maryland line." The first board
of managers of the turnpike road which was
chartered, and is still legally known as the
''Hanover and Maryland Line Turnpike
Road was composed of Jacob Eichelberger,
Christian Writ, George Mace, Adam Forney,
Samuel Lilly, Samuel Graybill, Henry Welsh,
Henry Bowman, Abraham Hiestand, Conrad
Sherman and Peter Forney. The entire cost
Of this turnpike, miles in length, was $37,
500. 1t was constructed by Edward McCabe
within fifteen months from time of beginning
and completed November Is, 1909, and ex:
tends most of the way over the line of the road
laid out in 1916.

The Argus is the latest venture in the jour;
nalistic field in Baltimore, and sails under the
Democratic flag. A Democratic paper is a
necessity in Baltimore, and the party should
have daily journal. Several have been
started, but after a short existence they have
been overwhelmed by financial disaster. 1t
is not the fault of the people that there is not
Democratic party paper in the city. Those
that have been started in recent years have
either been under the management and con-
troll of persons identified with faction, or
became so, and have been more personal than
political. Whenever journal becomes Q
personal organ it ceases to be party paper,
and the same is true as soon as it becomes
allied with faction. 1t is hoped the Argus,
although weekly, will steer clear of faction
and personal journalism, and be straight
party journal.

The President directed the allotment Of
land in severalty to the Indians on the Warm
Spring Reservation, in Oregon, an expert
ment that has long been urged has been in
augurated. 1t will be twenty five years, how
ever, before the Indian gets his land in fee;
in the interim the United States will hold it
in trust so that it cannot be disposed of.
Without such a provision it would not take
many months for the Indians white neighbors
to absorb their possessions, leaving the wards
of the nation still dependent upon the Gov.
eminent for support. Twenty five years Of
possession of land in seyeralty will, 1t is
hoped, break up tribal feeling and make the
Indians Independent and selfsupporting.

Young Blaine, who has been working as a
reporter on Pittsburg paper, has quit in dis
gust and gone to New York to enter broker S
office. 1t is to be observed that during his
career as Journalist" the young man did
not succeed in setting the literary woods on fire.
1t has been very often determined that man
may make a successful lawyer, preacher or
doctor and fail most woefuly as news
paper writer or manager. Those who know
anything about the profession have come. to
the conclusion that it is the most exacting
and aborious on earth. Indifferent men need

At the municipal election at Hagerstown
on Monday, the Knights of Labor took an
active part. Encouraged by their success, it
is now said, they will enter into the election
of county officers at the fall elections. The
order in Hagerstown has membership OF
45O, and there are strong assemblies at other
points in Washington county. The vote in
the county is rather close, and the Knights OF
Labor, if they stand together, have the power
to defeat or make successful either Demo
cratic or Republican tickets.
